She [Dr. Susan Lobel] is very knowledgeable, thorough, and spends a lot of time with her patients. She is not alarmist and gives measured medical advice. Because she is a sole practitioner, you get a very personal experience...Dr. Lobel is very quick to return calls and are very on top of each patient's schedule....Her protocol has been three months of letrozole with no other interventions, three months of iui, and then onto ivf. Her rationale seems to be that three months is long enough to get a sense whether this treatment will work for an individual patient, after which it's best to move on to the next intervention. So far, I am on my third month of iui and not yet pregnant.
